摘要

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to be associated with the progression of various tumors including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the role and underlying mechanism of hsa_circ_0087862 in CRC remains unclear. Hsa_circ_0087862 expression in CRC tissues was analyzed using two GEO datasets (GSE138589 and GSE126094). Expression of hsa_circ_0087862, miR-149-5p and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) in CRC cells was detected. The subcellular distribution of hsa_circ_0087862 was analyzed using a Cytoplasmic & Nuclear RNA Purification Kit. The function of hsa_circ_0087862 in CRC cells was detected using CCK-8, Transwell invasion assay, flow cytometry analysis, and Caspase-3 activity assay. The relationships between hsa_circ_0087862, miR-149-5p and TRAF6 were detected using luciferase reporter assay, RIP, or biotinylated RNA pull-down assay. Hsa_circ_0087862 was upregulated in CRC tissues and cells. Hsa_circ_0087862 is resistant to RNase R digestion and predominantly localized in the cytoplasm. Interference with hsa_circ_0087862 inhibited the malignant phenotypes of CRC cells by reducing cell proliferation and invasive abilities and triggering apoptosis. Hsa_circ_0087862 silencing inhibited TRAF6 expression by sponging miR-149-5p in CRC cells. Inhibition of miR-149-5p attenuated the effects of hsa_circ_0087862 on the malignant phenotypes of CRC cells. TRAF6 overexpression abolished the effects of miR-149-5p on cell growth, invasion and apoptosis in CRC cells. In conclusion, hsa_circ_0087862 silencing inhibited the malignant behaviors of CRC cells through inhibiting TRAF6 expression by sponging miR-149-5p.
